Between Us

I sighed as I woke up to the ring on my phone. "Why didn't I put it on silent?" I asked myself. I look to see who disturbed my peace but that hate was instantly replaced with joy.

"Good morning Chloe!" [Name] said in a joyful way. "Good morning to you also [Name]." I'm very thankful we are still bestfriends. "Remember the sleepover is today, so be here around 7pm."

"Of course. I wouldn't ever forget." She paused for a moment. "And Felix is back in Paris, but he isn't invited he'll just cook." Felix and I still really haven't talked since that day. "It's okay, I want this night to be fun."

"Ah okay that's great." Something seemed off about her, like she wanted to ask me something. "Are you okay?" "Yeah, yeah of course I am. Well see you later. Oh and bring your school stuff and extra clothes."

"Understood. Bye [Name]." I then hung up. "Maybe I'm just thinking too much on it." I got up and packed my bags. "John!" I yelled. "I hope that's his name." I mumbled to myself. "Yes madam?"

He entered the doorway. "Could you just put my bags in the car for now?" He agreed and does as I ask. I then glance at the clock. "It's ten in the morning." I sighed and climbed back into bed.

"A quick nap wouldn't hurt." Minutes passed on as I attempted to sleep, but my body disagreed with that. I kept thinking about something [Name] told me. "She's Hawkmoth and she said she's going to bring her father back to life." I sighed.

"What does that mean? And why did she decide to tell me all of that information?" I grabbed my pillow and hit my face with it. "And I can't even tell Adrien. That's something you're going to have to tell your boyfriend."

Honestly I was confused. "I thought the Hawkmoth I talked to was a guy, maybe they can change their voice." I then frowned. "Maybe I could help her with her dad, though I'm not sure how something like that would work."

"Chloe, don't do it." I jumped. For a second it sounded like [Name's] dad. My eyes glanced around the room, nothing. "Chloe, you can hear me right? I'm sure you can tell who this is." He chuckled.

"Yeah." My voice shaking. "Don't be scared. [Name] is going to get herself into some trouble soon. Don't help her." I didn't know what he meant. What trouble? "Chloe." His stern tone brought me back to reality.

"I don't understand." Maybe I didn't want to understand honestly. Maybe it's just another part of me telling myself I shouldn't help. "This isn't real. This cannot be a thing right now." I repeated over and over, and when I opened my eyes the voice was gone.

I stumbled backwards to the head of my bed and let go of the air I kept trapped. "What was that?" It might've been his voice but that was all. "I should talk to Adrien about that." I lied down and fell asleep.

"Chloe honey, don't you have to get ready for [Name's] sleepover?" It was my fathers voice. "What time is it?" I mumbled out. "Seven." I shot up. "Why didn't anyone wake me up?" I shout as I frantically got ready. "Sorry dear." My father then leaves while I continue to get ready.

I rush to the car and we drive off. I just hope nothing bad happens. I thought back to the last sleepover. "We have arrived." I get out the car while John gets my belongings. "[Name's] driver will take me to school tomorrow, but be sure to pick me up from school."

"Yes madam." He sets my bags in the house and leaves. "Hi Chloe!" She spins me into a hug. "Hey [Name]." I hug her back and smile. "Hey Chloe." Adrien then hugs me. I smile at him also.

"Here are plenty of snacks just Incase you get hungry." Felix told us. "Um Felix is it okay if we talk upstairs for a second?" I just want to clear things up. He agreed and we head up. I was nervous.

"What the fierce Chloe is scared now?" He chuckled. "What? No." Our eyes met. "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry for all the trouble I put you through. I know saying sorry won't change anything, but I am terribly sorry." I stared at the ground.

"Look at me." He demanded and of course I do. "It's okay Chloe, I forgive you." He reaches out to hug me, I've never hugged Felix. It was oddly nice. "I also have something to tell you, but it's really weird." I was gonna tell Adrien but maybe it's better to tell Felix.

"This morning it sounded like [Name's] dad was talking to me. He said that she's going to get herself into some trouble and I can't help her." I'm sure I sounded crazy. "What kind of trouble?" I don't think I can tell him or [Name] would be gradually upset.

"I'm not sure." He seemed disturbed. "Okay. Keep this between us." I nod and headed back downstairs. He must know something else. "Finally Chloe you're back. Let's play Mario kart." [Name] smiled.

"I'm not good at games though." She laughed. "Neither is Adrien." We choose our characters and get started. There's so many secrets between all of us I'm sure. I was wrong to get mad at her for not telling me things, especially when I was holding one of the biggest secrets from her.

"Chloe you really do suck as much as Adrien." "Adrien didn't you almost play in some game torment?" He sighed. "Yeah but I felt Max would be better with Marinette." I wonder if she still likes him.

"First place!" [Name] yells. "Somehow fifth for me." Adrien laughs. And me. "Chloe you're dead last." She seemed shocked. "I told you I wasn't good." "Well three more rounds but Chloe let's have girl talk real quick."

"It's okay I'll be here eating snacks by myself." Adrien sighed. It was so cute too. [Name] pulls me into her room and we both sat on her bed. "What I'm about to offer is kinda crazy." She warned me.

"What if I can get you the bee miraculous again, like forever. Will you help me with what I need to get done?" My stomach turned, I shouldn't. "I-I don't know [Name]."

She cups my cheeks. "Aw come on Chloe, you could help me fight Ladybug. After all that happened?" That's true, Ladybug has always embarrassed me and I do owe [Name]. "It'll be just a one time thing."

"Yeah I'll help you." She jumps for joy and tackles me into a hug. "I'll protect you so you won't get hurt." My gut wasn't feeling good and that's when I knew this was the trouble he meant. "There's no backing out Chloe, remember that."

"Okay." I frowned. "Real quick I'll explain the plan." She goes and grabs a piece of paper. "It'll be sometime before next week, during night. And I want to get the other miraculous so we have more people to fight but..." She paused. "I don't think I have allies.

"Do you want anyone in particular?" She grinned. "Josh, Luka and Kim." My eyes widened. "Why Kim?" She puts the paper away. "Well because I'll have you, and if he likes you, he should also be able to protect you."

Did she know I would say yes? "You seem to have everything planned out." "Of course, it's all for my father." I felt like I shouldn't ask about this but I've been going against myself all day. "Have you heard or seen your father recently?"

Her eyes lit up. "Yeah, that day you found me laying on the ground. I almost died that day, I was willing to stay with my dad." My heart was pounding. "And last night he was here with me, we've talked for a while."

So then was he real? "So you told him about this plan?" She sat next to me. "I told him what I will accomplish. He's totally all for it." Her smile was wide. It's like the girl next to me was not [Name], her aura was different from downstairs. And she completely scares me.

"Keep this between us." She grabs my hand and we head downstairs. "We're back Golden Turd." He was on the couch. "Took a while. Let's watch a movie." I don't know what to do, should I tell Felix or Adrien?

"You okay Chloe you seem pale?" Adrien held his palm against my forehead. "I'm okay." The way my tone was, I knew it wouldn't convince him. He stared at me for a few seconds and I avoided eye contact. "Okay. Sit next to me Chloe." He patted the cushion.

I was surprised he didn't want to sit next to [Name], but I looked over at her and she didn't seem bothered. "Action pack thriller!" She shouts into the remote and looked for some movies.

"What's wrong?" Adrien whispered to me. I once again glanced at [Name] and frowned. "Horror movies!" "I can't tell you Adrien." I knew he knows it was something involving [Name]. "Something about her dad's life right?" My eyes widened yet I stayed quite.

"I'll figure something out, just whatever she got you doing go along with it." So he does know something, and she doesn't know he does. "Let's just watch something funny." Adrien told her and she agreed.

We spent the rest of the night watching movies, talking and eating. Though I was really confused so I didn't enjoy it as much as I normally would.
